Chocolate Almond Brownie Cookies


Chocolate Almond Brownie Cookies 

Sometimes we all need just a bite of chocolate to make our spirits soar. 
Cook's Notes: Ghirardelli Chocolate  Premium Bars and Droste Cacao-Dutch processed cocoa powder were used for this recipe. Melted chocolate  and cocoa powder maximize the chocolate's complexity and intensity balanced with the addition of semi-sweet chocolate chips and a healthy dose of salt. What's not to like :)

  • 1/4 cup each toasted coconut and almonds 
  • 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
